About the Book

Camilo Castelo Branco (1825-1890) foi um escritor portugués, considerado o criador da novela passional portuguesa. Escreveu irreverentes crônicas para jornais. Nasceu na freguesia dos Mártires, em Lisboa, Portugal, ficou órfão de mãe com um ano e de pai com 10 anos. Foi morar com uma tia e depois com sua irmã mais velha. Em 1841, com apenas 16 anos, casou-se com uma jovem de 15 anos, Joaquina Pereira, mas logo a abandonou. Em 1843 ingressou na Escola Médico-Cirúrgica na cidade do Porto, mas entregue à boemia, não conseguiu concluir o curso. Em 1845 publicou seus primeiros trabalhos literários. Em 1846 fugiu com a jovem Patrícia Emília, mas a abandona, poucos anos depois. No ano seguinte morreu sua esposa legítima, de quem estava separado, e a filha do casal morreu no ano seguinte. Camilo Castelo Branco passou por uma crise espiritual em 1850, e ingressou no seminário do Porto, pretendendo seguir a vida religiosa. Nesse ano conheceu Ana Plácido, que casada com um comerciante brasileiro, abandonou o marido em 1859 e foi viver com Camilo. Em 1860 é processado e preso por crime de adultério, mas é absolvido no ano seguinte, passando a viver com Ana. O casal foi morar em Lisboa e depois em São Miguel de Seide, sempre com muitos problemas financeiros. Em 1863 publica "Amor de Perdição", sua novela mais famosa. Sua vida atribulada lhe deu inspiração para os temas de suas novelas. Também reconstituiu em suas obras o panorama dos costumes de Portugal de seu tempo, quase sempre com uma profunda sintonia com as maneiras de ser e sentir do povo português. Em 1889, quando se torna uma celebridade nacional como escritor, recebe uma homenagem da Academia de Lisboa. Recebeu o título de Visconde concedido pelo rei de Portugal, D. Luís I. Uma doença nos olhos que pouco a pouco lhe tirava a visão, fez Camilo mergulhar em profunda depressão. Depois de saber que ficaria definitivamente cego Camilo suicida-se em São Miguel de Seide, Vila Nova de Famalicão, no dia 01 de junho de 1890.
